Wildest Coast along the Great Lakes?

[Frank Petronio]

I live a few miles from Lake Ontario, which doesn't really have any unpopulated wild-looking coastline except for a few smaller parks on the US side.... I'm just wondering, where is the wildest shoreline along the Great Lakes?

I'm thinking of the scenes at the end of the movie "Road to Perdition" -- wherever that was? Somewhere North of Chicago....

I imagine it might be the South shore of the Canadian side on Superior, but what is the wildest shore on the US side? And where are some of the gems near more populated areas?

North of Duluth on Minnesota's North Shore. Rugged rocky shorelines.

North of Duluth on Minnesota's North Shore. Rugged rocky shorelines all the way to Canada. Worth the adventure. Did it 7 years ago.

Lake Superior north of Sault Saint. Marie Ontario, the further north you go, the better. Oops, you said U.S. side, my bad. I don't like the end of that movie
because they used ocean sounds instead of lake michigan waves for the audio track. Listen, it's very obvious.

As opposed to Northern Michigan?

Has anyone seen the Michigan Dunes? I always see the sign, but I have never made time to stop. Maybe Frank wants something wilder. I'm curious anyhow.

Oh I am just thinking about Summer/Fall adventures, I think I need to drive to Minneapolis for some work and from there go exploring on my way back East. I am thinking about going via Canada too.

northern Minnesota...definitely. Way more wild than the UP.

Northern Michigan:
1) Sleeping Bear (400 ft high) Sand Dunes, 2) Pictured Rocks is ok too, 3) I remember Porcupine Mountains were very steep and rocky, Presque Isle is ok.
